Verdict

TEMPESTATEFLORESCO beat Saturday’s all-the-way Worcester winner Ink Master by nine lengths over fences at Exeter last month. He’s making his hurdling debut at the age of nine but is getting 7lb from Worcester winner Steel Bob and that should be enough. Clo Sacre has shown nothing so far under Rules while Holy Street was still beaten 26 lengths when second at Uttoxeter. Doyen Dynamo has won three times between the flags but is having his first run under Rules since 2014.
